Focus - Sony DSC-RX100M3 User Giude

Note
In the [Night Scene], [Night Portrait] and [Fireworks] modes, the shutter speed is slower, so use of a
tripod is recommended to prevent the image from blurring.
In the [Hand-held Twilight] or [Anti Motion Blur] mode, the shutter clicks 4 times and an image is
recorded.
If you select [Hand-held Twilight] or [Anti Motion Blur] with [RAW] or [RAW & JPEG], the image
quality becomes [Fine] temporarily.
Reducing blur is less effective even in [Hand-held Twilight] or [Anti Motion Blur] when shooting the
following subjects:
Subjects with erratic movement.
Subjects that are too close to the product.
Subjects with continuously similar patterns, such as the sky, a beach, or a lawn.
Subjects with constant change such as waves or water falls.
In the case of [Hand-held Twilight] or [Anti Motion Blur], block noise may occur when using a light
source that flickers, such as fluorescent lighting.
The minimum distance that you can come close to a subject does not change even if you select
[Macro]. For the minimum in-focus range, refer to the minimum distance of the lens attached to the
product.
Hint
To change the scene, rotate the control wheel on the shooting screen and select a new scene.

1. Set the mode dial to S (Shutter Priority).
2. Select the desired value by turning the control wheel.
3. Adjust the focus and shoot the subject.
The aperture is automatically adjusted to obtain proper exposure.
Note
If proper exposure cannot be obtained after setup, the aperture value on the shooting screen blinks.
Although you can shoot as it is, resetting is recommended.
Use a tripod to prevent blurring when you use a slow shutter speed.
The (SteadyShot warning) indicator does not appear in shutter speed priority mode.
When the shutter speed is 1/3 second(s) or longer, noise reduction will be done after shooting for the
same amount of time that the shutter was open. However, you cannot shoot any more while noise
